The program provides hands-on, beginner-friendly instruction in robotics and coding, often hosted on the Caltech campus, fostering an early interest in STEAM fields.
The Rise Summer Experience @ Caltech - STEAM:CODERS offers engaging, hands-on robotics and coding classes for elementary school students. Participants in the robotics class learn to build and program their own robots using basic programming, exploring STEM concepts in a creative way. The Python programming camp introduces fundamental concepts like variables, loops, functions, and simple graphics through games and interactive coding activities. Another option allows students to learn coding using Minecraft Education Edition, where they build, create, and solve challenges using block-based coding and beginner Python. The program aims to develop critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and an appreciation for STEAM disciplines.
A typical day involves hands-on activities where kids build and program robots, engage in coding challenges, or create projects within environments like Minecraft Education Edition.
This camp is best for curious elementary school students (grades 3-6) with a love for technology, building, or Minecraft, who are new to coding and robotics.
